Celis et al., 2017 combined six years of eddy covariance flux tower data and soil respiration chambers and found that a moist tundra site was a source of carbon to the atmosphere, but much of the net source arises from the slow, but continuous emissions in winter.

She moves a short way upstream and does it all over again, scouring algae off rock, washing silt out of the eddies, aerating gravel.
These kinds of eddies can pinch off from strong boundary currents like the Gulf Stream, or form where water flows of different temperatures and densities come into contact.
It's not Kansas down there, but the new research suggests that powerful deep - sea cyclones — the whirling underbellies of eddies — sweep through these communities on a seasonal basis, transporting vent products to far - off waters.
A computer simulation of the eddies produced similar deep - sea currents, giving support to the correlation between the two observations.
By correlating the flux of chemical sediments and organisms with the passage of eddies, researchers say they have identified a new mechanism by which vent products are transported around the world.
Lead author of the study and an expert in sea level science, Professor Chris Hughes, said: «What we found was a pair of eddies spinning in opposite directions and linked to each other so that they travel together all the way across the Tasman Sea, taking six months to do it.
In fact, the new research to be published in Nature on July 19 shows that less than 10 percent of the eddy's waters mixed with the surrounding ocean.
To definitively say that the birds are drafting off each other, however, the exact location of the eddies and the areas of downdraft would need to be measured on ibises, which would require flying them in a wind tunnel — a far more intrusive process than simply carrying a data logger.
Visbeck, M., J. Marshall, T. Haine, and M. Spall, 1997: Specification of eddy transfer coefficients in coarse - resolution ocean circulation models.
Jen talks Mike through the close linkage between observations and theory: it's hard to conceive of an Antarctic Circumpolar Current composed of a horde of eddies if you can only look over the side of one ship at a time.
The resistance offered is also on a higher number, with 25 levels of eddy magnetic current available; therefore, you can always push yourself to a higher level.

In the real world, small - scale phenomena such as convection, clouds, gravity waves, and various sorts of eddies may influence mesoscale systems such as TCs, and these unresolved small - scale phenomena are represented through often somewhat simplistic statistical «parameterizations».
So the short answer to the question is, the properties of these eddies are not only important, but in fact they are fundamental to the large - scale planetary circulation.
